Didn't think much of Summerslam but as always NXT blew me away. I don't even watch the weekly NXT shows, but the storylines are so simple and effective that a decent hype package (which they do a great job of) easily brings me up to speed. I'm usually far more interested in watching the Takeover specials than any of the weak main roster PPVs with mis-cast wrestlers, shit storylines and WWE's signature boring in ring style.

Not sure whether NXT is a very effective developmental system as it's everything the main shows aren't - probably half the reason so many NXT call ups flounder. Vince would have the likes of Velveteen Dream and Kairi Sane buried in the mid-card or totally off TV in no time.

Not much to say about Summerslam other than it was pretty hilarious how they fooled the idiots in the crowd by hauling Strowman out there with his briefcase. They managed to get a decent reaction for Reigns winning (due to the crowd thinking Braun would cash in and wreck him) then went off the air before the viewing audience could see the crowd's reaction when they realise there's not going to be a cash in bravo.
